Mike Weirsky
May 21, 2019 I am Michael J Weirsky i recently won $273 million Mega Millions drawing held on Friday March 1, 2019, I have voluntarily decided to donate the sum of $1,500,000.00 to you, being part of my Charitable Organizational Donation Project to financially support ten (10) lucky people around the world. Mar 07, 2019 Michael J. Weirsky, 53, of Alpha, New Jersey was confirmed by lottery officials on Wednesday as the jackpot winner of Friday's drawing, after coming forward to claim his prize. Mike Weirsky finally got a call for a job interview Wednesday after more than a year of looking for employment without any luck. But that call came three days too late, he said. On Sunday, Weirsky. Beware of Phishing Messages in the name of mega jackpot lottery winner Mr. Mike Wiersky or Michael J. Weirsky such as; “Hello this is Mike Wiersky 2019 New Jersey Mega winner, Congratulations you have been randomly picked among those I will be giving $30,000, are you ready to get your winning?”. So, Michael weirsky is a handyman from New Jersey, he'd been looking for work. He might not have to anymore. And he wants that Ford pick-up first. First thing I'm doing is buying.
It’s against Twitter’s Terms of Service to impersonate someone. Yet, impersonation accounts flourish on the platform. Fake lottery winner accounts are a stark example of how well impersonation accounts flourish on Twitter. Not only do these accounts impersonate lottery winners, they also use the same modus operandi. They are, effectively, Twitter scam accounts.
My sympathies to the real lottery winners and to anyone scammed into giving private information to these accounts.
Twitter Scam Accounts, Example 1
Michael Weirsky of New Jersey won $273 million dollars in the Mega Millions Lottery in March 2019. It took very little time for loads of Michael Weirsky impersonation accounts to hit Twitter. Here’s a tiny sample.
Additionally, the bot-troll program didn’t mind using the opportunity to throw in an extra Trump supporter.
Twitter Scam Accounts, Example 2
After winning $758 million in the Powerball Lottery, Mavis Wancyzk became a fast target for impersonators. In 2017, Wancyzk’s hometown police department warned the public that scammers were impersonating her. And, yet, two years later, impersonators are still able to create and run scam accounts in her name. Again, just a small sample.
Mike Weirsky Now
Not one of these accounts is the woman in question. It’s impossible to think that it is that difficult for Twitter to proactively find and suspend these accounts?
And the Examples Continue
Michael and Mavis are not alone. Pick the name of any lottery winner and you are bound to find impersonation accounts (sometimes hundreds, sometimes thousands) in their names.
Julie Leach, 2015
Charles Jackson, Jr., 2019
Richard Wahl, 2018
Oh, and that pro-Trump account from above? It’s not alone. The bot-troll program has tentacles far and wide.
Twitter’s Lack of Accountability
Of course, there are plenty more where these came from. The bottomless pit of fake Twitter accounts is truly bottomless. It’s hard to fathom, but fake accounts are being created daily. The bad actors span the globe, so it’s not just a few accounts.
We are talking, conservatively, many thousands of fake accounts created every single day for many years. Just jump on a large account (Trump’s, for example) and look at the followers. Refresh the screen once per minute. Watch the fake accounts roll in. It’s not rocket science. There’s no excuse for Twitter not to have a handle on such obvious fake accounts by now.
One, Final Point
The accounts shown above are scam accounts. As I’ve mentioned before, it’s easy to see that these are impersonator accounts when they are pre-compiled and organized. But not so much when they are scattered among millions of other accounts. Please be aware and don’t be fooled by Twitter scam accounts.

Mike Wiersky who won jackpot, a sum of $273 million Mega Millions jackpot. An unemployed New Jersey man who won last Friday’s $273 million Mega Millions jackpot said he wants to reward the mystery person who returned the tickets to a store where he’d left them a day earlier.
Mike Weirsky, of Alpha, N.J., said at a news conference with lottery officials Thursday that he bought the tickets last Thursday at a Quick Check store in Phillipsburg, near the Pennsylvania border, and forgot them there because he was more focused on his cellphone.
Someone found them and gave them to the store to hold. When Weirsky returned on Friday, he verified the tickets were his and store employees returned them. Lottery officials said Thursday that if the person who found the tickets had held onto them and signed them, they could have claimed the jackpot.
“I’m looking for the guy that handed them in, I want to thank him,” Weirsky said. “I’m going to give him something, but I’m going to keep that private. I’m very thankful there was an honest person out there because I figured it (the ticket) was gone.”
The 54-year-old says he got divorced last fall and had been a stay-at-home husband for years while his wife worked. He said he’d been looking for work for about a year and hadn’t gotten any calls for interviews – until Wednesday, by which time work had ceased to be a priority.
“I had to deny it before I even went,” he said.
Weirsky says he’s going to “sit back and enjoy” the money. He said the first thing he’s going to do is buy a new pickup truck, then buy his mother a new car and pay to remodel her home.
“After that I’m basically locked in to what my lawyer and other people I have working for me tell me I can do,” he said.
Weirsky, who has been playing the lottery for years, said he checked the tickets at home on Sunday and saw he’d matched the numbers, but couldn’t quite believe his eyes. He went back to the store during Sunday night’s snowstorm and got the news.
“I couldn’t believe I was the winner of more than $2 after playing after all these years,” he said. “I was down, now I’m way up! I don’t know how much higher I can get,” Weirsky said.
The winning numbers were 29, 33, 39, 60, 66, and the Mega Ball was 21. Weirsky said he said he plays $20 a week, mostly quick picks.
So now after all the findings of the guy who found the ticket and show appreciation and how grateful he was to him, which he did and keep in private. Now he’s willing to do give away just to help people out there in the community who’re in need or on the street that has nothing doing to put food on the table for themselves or for their families.
So he want people to partake in this great opportunity to help themselves in the community with the giveaway.
